As we all know by now because we think we saw someone Instagram about it, which is honestly the truth in my case because the world is a very funny vampire, the IRL film company Kodak is filing for bankruptcy. Very sad! I bet. I’m sure people are sad about it. I’m not sad about it because I have too many other things to be sad about, like how I need a new book of checks and I feel like that’s going to be kind of annoying to get, and TAXES?, and most importantly how NOW the Oscars venue isn’t going to be called the “Kodak Theatre” anymore. BUT MY CHILDHOOD! From Deadline:
Bankrupt Kodak said in court filing this week that it wants its name taken off the Kodak Theatre at Hollywood & Highland, the home of the Academy Awards since 2001. The company said the move to relinquish naming rights will save it serious cash as it begins bankruptcy proceedings after filing for Chapter 11 protection earlier this month.
“So it goes.” Yes? This is just like in that book when that guy says, “So it goes.” O, FORTUNA. Although this is a difficult time, as it’s always hard when something we thought would be one way forever suddenly changes, like when Videogum’s logo wasn’t this* anymore, we have to pick up our hearts and insides from the floor, stuff them back into our limp bodies, and carry on. Something that I think will help us move on is imagining the theatre with different, appropriate, and likely names.
I will begin.
- The Bing Theatre
- The Videogum Theatre
- Ford’s Theatre
- #PlacesYouGoWhenYouWantToGoToATheatre
- DONDA
- The Lindsay Lohan Theatre Experience
- What’s Cooler Than A Million Dollars, A Theatre, Facebook Theatre
- The Videogum & Stereogum Theatre Experience
- XOXO Gossip Girl Theatre
- Shit A Theatre’s Called Theatre
- Burger King Theatre
PHEW! I feel better. Kind of. It’s going to take some time, I think. YOUR TURN NOW, IF YOU WANT!
*Thank you, FLW!

Kelly, you should have asked me. If you have your EGOT, the site shows you the old logo.
Just kidding. I still lack “Lowest Rated”.
Historically, expressing negative opinions about Obama or Tina Fey seems to do the trick.
Kittens are fucking stupid.
Obama and Tina Fey are so terrible, they probably write for Parks and Rec.
Why even bother trying to get lowest rated this week? That Muse superfan housed us all. Save up your ill will for another time, my son.
ACTUALLY FACETACO, EXPRESSING POSITIVE OPINIONS ABOUT THE LEAD SINGER OF MUSE WOULD DO IT TOO IF YOU EVEN DID THE SLIGHTEST BIT OF RESEARCH YOU FUCKING IDIOT.
newt gingrich’s personal life should not be brought up in the presidential campaign. he is an honorable, thoughtful man.
Whoopas! Sorry Patrick M! I downvoted you by mistake!
Kelly, luckily DS3M keeps all the old Videogum logos tattooed on his left pectoral muscle, so I snapped a clear shot of this for your archive.
Perfect.

It’s too bad Kodak didn’t hire Mark Wahlberg as their CEO. He would have prevented bankruptcy.

anytime someone tries to say “Kodak Theater,” the ABC producers will just crank up the orchestra to drown out the speaker.
